A patient does not have a substantial enough state constitutional privacy right to overcome the public interest in making prescription controlled substances records inspections at pharmacies. Pharmacies are highly regulated, and there are sufficient other general protections of patient information. Reporting sales of controlled substances through the state database (CURES) is not, on balance, an unreasonable violation of patients’ privacy rights. Lewis v. Superior Court, 2014 Cal. App. LEXIS 471 (2d Dist. May 29, 2014).
